What if the way you're managing your pain is keeping you stuck with it?
Find out what you've been missing & how to build a body that prevents pain, and keeps you active & capable.
Back Pain & Sports Injury specialist
What would you do if your body stopped holding you back?
Run further. Lift heavier. Take on that mountain adventure. Or simply enjoy doing more of what you love.
Maybe pain or injury has already stopped you. Or you’re still doing it but increasingly working around aches, flare-ups and limitations you’ve started accepting as normal.
It’s easy to blame age, genetics, old injuries, bad luck or the price of being active.
But who says it has to be that way?
Recurring pain and injury aren’t something you should simply accept as inevitable.
There is far more you can influence and change than you realise.
What if the way your body has learned to stand, sit and move is putting it under strain you don't even notice?
And what if you could change that?
Let's make the invisible - visible
You see a squat. I see about 20 things happening before you’ve even started to lower yourself.
There’s a whole world of movement happening beneath the exercises you do. Stretching and strengthening are only a small part of the picture.
That’s what we’ll explore in your Pain Pattern Blueprint.
Expect light bulb moments
This isn’t about me measuring you and telling you what’s wrong. It’s a hands-on experience where you’ll discover things about your own body you’ve never noticed before.
Things that never made sense before start clicking into place as you discover how your body works and where strain might be building up.
You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of your body, where we’d begin making changes and how we could build on those discoveries through 1:1 coaching.
Can you really prevent pain & injury?
Nobody can promise you’ll never experience pain or injury again. That’s nonsense.
But you can do far more than wait for the next problem.
You can develop movement patterns that massively reduce the unnecessary strain on your body.
You can build a body with greater capacity to handle all of life's demands.
You can recognise warning signs and take action before small problems become bigger ones, instead of taping them up or hoping they'll go away.
You’ll really understand what your body needs alongside your running, training or favourite sport. How to prepare for bigger challenges, adapt when something isn’t right.
Because the goal isn’t just what your body can do today. It’s what you’ll still be able to enjoy at 70, 80 and beyond.
And when something does go wrong, you’ll have the knowledge and skills to respond rather than ending up back in the pain–treatment–pain cycle.
Just getting stronger isn't the answer. You need to build a body you can trust.

"Working with Julie has been life-changing"
“She got me round my last marathon without knee pain after just 3 weeks of working together. Now, I’m more supple, mobile & have less headaches and I’m not suffering recurring injuries. The best bit is I feel more capable. I’ve even signed up for my first ultra marathon”

Expect light-bulb moments. Discover connections you didn’t see before.

Hi I'm Julie
A movement coach and sports injury specialist based in Bromley Cross, Bolton.
I’m not very good at accepting an explanation when it doesn’t quite add up.
That’s what led me down the movement, recovery and human-performance rabbit hole and shaped the way I coach today.
I look for patterns. I ask questions. I test things.
Because when someone has spent years thinking:“I’ve got a weak back.” Or “I’m just rubbish at downhills.” And “This is what happens as you get older.”
My first thought is: Maybe. But let’s find out.
This is Phil
Sometimes two pairs of eyes are better than one.
Phil is my partner and works alongside me in the business, with particular expertise in foot mechanics, gait and breathing.
He also brings more than 30 years of climbing and bouldering experience and a slightly different perspective on how bodies solve movement problems.
This is for you if...
You’ve got things you want to do. And you’re fed up with your body getting in the way.
Maybe your back keeps flaring up. You get one injury sorted and another appears. You’ve had to stop running, change how you train or give up activities you love.
Or there’s a challenge you’d love to take on, but you’re not confident your body will cope.
You’ve tried treatment, stretching, strengthening or resting. Some of it helps, but you’re still not where you want to be.
You are naturally curious, a questioner. You want to understand what’s going on, and feel like you can change it, not have to wait for treatment after the problem. Know how to reduce and prevent problems .
Build a body you can rely on for the long haul.
You don’t have to be an athlete. Just someone who wants to stay active, take on challenges and see what they’re capable of.
Real results, real people
Aiden, 1:1 client, Lymm
"Julie helps me get the most from what my body can do."
“Within 3 months, I was going box-to-box like Bellingham again and now I’ve run for 22 minutes and even been skiing. Julie challenges conventional wisdom, keeps me accountable, and shows what’s truly possible.”
“I’ve seen such an improvement that I am thrilled that I have returned to running. I even completed a sprint triathlon for the first time in 6 years.”
"It's given me the confidence to get back running which I didn't think I would do again. It's been liberating! Through this process I will end up better than before the pain started. So in a way it was a bit of a wakeup call and will set me up for the future."
"This has been life-changing for me and one of the best investments in my health that I have done. I am now free from pain in my hips and have better movement in my spine and whole body, as well as an improvement in mental health"
"I was ready to burn my running shoes and give up due to ongoing pain and injury. But now my plantar fasciitis is completely gone. No more foot pain or back pain. And I am closing in on my half marathon goal. I use everything you taught me and it pays off"
